A Day on Skye

On our way to the Outer Hebrides, we spent a fantastic day on Skye. The sun was shining, it was a clear day and The Cuillins were spectacular.

North of the town of Poretee is the Trotternish Peninsula which is absolutely stunning. There are sheer cliffs dropping down to the ocean, green pastures, dinosaur footprints and spectacular rock formations, including The Old Man of Storr, a 50-odd metre high pinnacle. You can walk up to the base of The Old Man, which we did:
